Many had not bothered, <br />But have lots to say... <br />About the stench of garbage, <br />Tossed around today. <br />And there's no doubt about it, <br />Everybody will pay... <br />From their pockets stocked with gloom. <br />To be reaching even deeper, <br />From those pockets of gloom. <br />Whether liking it or not but not a moment is it stopped, <br />This reaching for gloom! <br />And there's no doubt about the people who are making room, <br />For a seeking to be reaching even deeper... <br />As if the doing feeds a selfish need, <br />To do! <br />As if the doing feeds a selfish need, <br />To prove... <br />The reaching even deeper can be done! <br /> <br />Many had not bothered, <br />But have lots to say... <br />About the stench of garbage, <br />Tossed around today. <br />And there's no doubt about it, <br />Everybody will pay... <br />From their pockets stocked with gloom. <br />To be reaching even deeper, <br />From those pockets of gloom. <br />As if the doing feeds a selfish need, <br />To prove... <br />The reaching even deeper can be done!<br /><br />Lawrence S.
